Source: International Railway Journal (behind paywall), free access via https://12ft.io/Italioan State Railways (FS) subsidiary Trenitalia has signed a preliminary agreement with German Rail (DB) to introduce Frecciarossa services from Rome and Milan to Munich at the timetable change at the end of 2026.
FS confirmed that it is working with DB on potential extensions of this service to other destinations in Germany, including Berlin. FS says that connecting journey times will be reduced by up to an hour following the opening of the 55km Brenner Base Tunnel from Franzensfeste in northern Italy to near Innsbruck in Austria, which is scheduled for 2032.
This is a preliminary agreement only, many things may happen between now and the end of 2026....
